Monocle

Monocle is a tiny retail space run by the metropolitan culture magazine of the same name. What it lacks in size, it makes up for with effective presentation of its wares. It caters to a "casual professional" sensibility, with its selection of old-school writing paraphernalia, minimalist office wear, specialty books and music, poster prints, and of course, back issues of the mag.

If the staff are nice enough, they might let you peep at the well-appointed office space behind the main shop.
